Inmate Money

Every prison has a Commissary which was started to provide an account for prisoner money and for purchasing things not provided by the prison.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Family, friends, or other sources can deposit money to these Commissary accounts by sending it by Western Union and the U.S. Postal Service.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends can choose to send prisoners money through postal mail and must send it to the following address and follow the policies written below:

Federal Bureau of Prisons
Insert Valid Committed Inmate Name
Insert Inmate Eight-Digit Register Number
Post Office Box 474701
Des Moines, Iowa 50947-0001

The deposit has to be in a money order that is made out to the prisoner’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You should use a U.S. Postal Service money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be placed on a 15-day hold, during which the prisoner will not get the money. The Bureau of Prisons will return any funds that don’t have valid prisoner info but only if the envelope it was sent it has a return address. Checks and cash can’t be accepted so do not send cash or checks.
